In our workshop we would like to focus on how the form affects value and color, (specifically when painting a portrait).  We would like to work with the artists who have experience in working with live a model, so that we can skip the anatomical structure of human head and deep-dive into the intricacies of painting and migrations of color. We will share (with you) our painting techniques, the color palettes and “tricks of the trade” that we use when working with the model to create an engaging portrait. Students will have a unique opportunity to see two individual approaches to painting from two different artists, that are both rooted in the same underlying painting tradition. We hope that this workshop will help artists to deepen their understanding of the principles of oil painting. www.kalaichi.com/ and www.sarazhin-denis.com
